rest. the one week anniversary of the bombing marked by a moment of silence. heads bowed across the city and the nation. yet it's the stories of kindness that keep boston going. friday's man hunt trapped mckenzie wells and her 17 month old son holden in their home. out of milk she got this special delivery from a brook line police officer. >> never imagined someone in their tactical gear carrying two gallons of milk down the street. >> the photo taken by her husband, just more evidence of how a small gesture can make a big difference. >> thank you. >> reporter: now today those who left their belongings in the chaos of the explosion can get them from the boston police, and also those who live on the section of boylston street that was closed by the bombings and those who work there, they can return to their places of work and the places where they live, but there is no word yet on when boylston street will be reopened to the public. matt. >> anne thompson in boston.

thanks very much. pete williams is in washington with new details on the investigation. pete, good morning. and let me ask you about the charges. unlawfully using and conspiring to use a weapon of mass destruction resulting in death and malicious destruction of property. anything surprise you with what he has been charged with and hasn't? >> reporter: no, not what he has been charged with. this is fully what we expected. it's a charge that could carry the death penalty in the federal system. massachusetts doesn't have the death penalty in the state system. he is a ehe's not charged with killing the campus policeman. they could possibly include it in a later indictment or perhaps the state could bring charges. >> so the suspect is gravely injured. he's in a hospital bed and he is's answering did we act alone, were we affiliated with any larger terror group. he says no to that question. do the authorities think his answers are credible? >> reporter: well, they don't know. this is one thing they're going

to have to check out, but he has said they were not in touch with any overseas groups, that they came up with the plan on their own motivated by islamic religious fervor. he says they got their instructions on how to make their bombs from the internet, specifically from an online magazine called "inspire" published by al qaeda. it has twice included information on how to build bombs including pressure cookers offering a design very similar to the way that their bombs were built. >> let me ask you to change gears because there's another story we're following. in cooperation with u.s. officials, canadian law enforcement officials say they have foiled a plot to blow up a passenger train. what can you tell me about that? >> reporter: a passenger train, matt, from new york to ontario. it would be on canada's version of amtrak. they got onto it lastfall when they got a tip from the ka madian muslim community. authorities have been watching these two men closely since then. they say the plot was inspired by al qaeda in iran which they

say was providing, quote, direction and guidance. now according to officials in both the u.s. and canada this plot never got to the stage of acquiring explosives, but even so he, these officials say the two men have both the intent and the capability of following through with it, matt. >> frightening possibility. thanks very much. we are following two major stories this morning when it comes to flying. federal officials are putting on hold a new rule that would allow small knives back on planes. it was supposed to take effect on thursday but it has received strong opposition from flight crews and some lawmakers. some of the nation's largest air carriers are also against it. so now the tsa says it will give more groups the opportunity to weigh in before that rule is put into place. in the meantime, if you have a flight today, you should call ahead. budget cuts from the so-called sequester are forcing thousands of air traffic controllers to take time off, and that's already leading to costly delays for passengers.

nbc's lisa myers is at washington's regan national airport with more on that story. lisa, good morning. >> reporter: hey, savannah. good morning. this is the third day of furloughs of air traffic controllers around the country. so far we've seen hundreds of delays, some of more than three hours in los angeles. the airlines are warning that if these furloughs continue, one out of every three travelers could face major delays or cancellations during peak travel season. delays at laguardia, newark, charlotte. the faa on monday blamed staffing and weather and says staffing challenges at regional centers led to ground delays and more spacing between flights around the country. it's the first time the public has felt the impact of across the board budget cuts from the sequester. >> it's already bad enough when they have their regular delays so i can't imagine being stuck here for three hours and not knowing what's going to be next.

>> in certain places i believe cutbacks should not be happening. >> i think it's horrible. there's enough problems dealing with delays and security and weather and other things when you're flying. i think they should furlough the president and congress. >> reporter: the faa claims it had no choice but to put 15,000 controllers on unpaid furloughs, which means 10% fewer of them working each day. the agency said that could mean delays of 3 1/2 hours in atlanta, more than 2 hours in chicago, and 1:20 in laguardia. the airlines are furious and argue there are other places to cut. >> the air traffic controllers have never been furloughed. they should not be furloughed now. >> reporter: the controllers claim they're being used as political pawns. >> it's the piece of sequestration that i think affects the americans the most, and i don't think that it's fair that air traffic control,

particularly air traffic controllers -- >> reporter: transportation secretary ray lahood have a message for those who want the controllers back. >> call your members of congress and this will go away. >> reporter: now the administration seems to be saying that it will not accept the solution that merely puts air traffic controllers back to work, that any fix must roll back the entire sequester. savannah, that means that for air travelers the next few months could be a nightmare. >> all right. lisa myers at reagan national airport for us. the airport doesn't make me feel better about everything that's going on. >> you have to wait at least it's nice to have -- >> we do have more breaking news this morning coming out of libya. a bombing targeting an embassy there. natalie has that. >> matt, good morning. an attack on the french embassy in the libyan capitol. a car bomb detonated in tripoli marking the most significant attack on that country since the

israel's ambitions. he's heading to jord dand and saudi arabia. now to wall street. cnbc's jackie deangel loss is there. >> good morning. all eyes on apple ahead of its earnings report this afternoon. the concern is that the company could say it saw a sharp drop in iphone sales. the stock taking a big beating down nearly 45% since its peak last september. meantime, netflix is another one to keep an eye on. the on demand movie streaming site reporting a gain of 2 million u.s. subscriber. that's sending the stocks soaring in after hour sessions. >> jackie with the new york stock exchange, thanks. a terrifying moment in celina, kansas, where a woman walked into a bathroom at the circus, closed the door, and then she came face to face with a tiger two feet away from her. this is video when the massive feline escaped during its performance. then when the woman was in the

bathroom with the tiger, she stayed calm. she was able to exit and alerted workers who then recaptured the animal. the woman's 3-year-old daughter meanwhile had only one concern about that hair racing incident. she wanted to know if the tiger washed its hands before leaving the bathroom, its paws. >> that's like a sequel to the "hangover." >> public restrooms are terrifying but for different reasons. >> all you need is mike tyson. >> natalie, thank you so much. may we turn to a man who was last night given the lifetime achievement award by the friars club here in new york. [ applause ] >> today is my last day. anyway, let's show you what we've got for snow in colorado. it will not stop snowing. the colorado rockies have had to cancel a number of their games because of snow and it just keeps going. we're going to get a little more in there today. let's show you what we've got. a couple of low pressure systems, one bringing snow up to duluth, minnesota.

inflammation, irritation and thatan cause pain, it can cause trouble breathing. >> reporter: while mos peopl who try it recover quickly a report publied monday online in the journal "pediatrics" warns it's on the rise with seous consequences. >> last year we noticed there was an increasing number of callo poison control centers around the united states for poisonings related to using the cinnamon challenge. >>eporter: the number of calls to poiso control centers jumped more than four times with 222 calls last year. some teens even hospitalized f collapsed lungs. >> it's entirely preventable. our advice would be this is one dare that's not worth doing. >> it's not worth doing when you put something in your mouth if youan spit it out and swallow it but in this case if you inhale it, it hurts your lungs and that's what sends pple to the ergency rooms. don't do it it's a dumb idea. >> you heard it from the doctor

after the attacks, it did not take long to identify the suspects. what if the cameras were so high-tech they could pick out a bomb hidden on the street before it goes off. as you're about to see, the future is now. watch this man. he drops a bag on the ground, then walks away. what if it was a bomb. would officers spot it? now the nypd can in seconds, using new cutting edge technology. >> the system gives the officers an alert. it says it's an abandoned package at the chrysler building. >> it even gives you an image and circles the package for you. >> shows exactly where the package was left. >> it's called artificial intelligence, software that turns surveillance cameras into smart cameras, so smart the computer learns what normal behavior looks like on every corner and can spot abnormalities instantly. from abandoned packages to suspicious activity, alerting police in realtime.

>> how effective has it been? >> well, we've had 16 plots against the city since september 11th and none have succeeded. >> what if the suspects are in a car? the nypd showed us another high-tech tool. in this simulation, a vehicle on the police watch list has entered the city. little do the criminals know, special cameras are tracking them, reading thousands of license plates every second. >> our camera just spotted a vehicle on the west side highway. not only do we know where the car is, we get two pictures in realtime of that vehicle. in addition, it will show us every place where that license plate has been scanned before on our system going back as long as we have data. >> these cameras can even pick suspects out of a crowd based on the shirt they are wearing. lets say it's red. each of the city's 4,000 cameras can hone in and pull all the red shirts out. >> individuals who want to attack or think about attacking,
